Rap crap =Angry sexist racist hateful Ebonics Stupid senseless non-lyrical non-musical But enough white dumbasses buy into it which makes so many “idiots” so rich..BLING Who shoots each other all the time? Who condones violence all the time? Who sounds like ignorant school dropouts? Who cares if another one got shot? Did his black life matter? NO, because a fellow negro shot him and since it wasn’t a white or a cop— in the warped minds of the Africans—it’s ok! Plus who are they gonna get $27 million from?

It sounds like he had the opportunity for a decent education. Too bad he had to fall by the wayside like so many other aspiring rappers. I put rappers about a notch above drug dealers. They peddle harmful words and ideas to impressionable young people, as bad as any drug.

Although I'm not going to post it, here's an article about a rap festival in Miami. https://pjmedia.com/news-and-politics/kevindowneyjr/2021/05/30/breaking-27-shot-in-miami-urban-beach-week-event-n1450863 There is a lot of death in this genre.

Is there a rapper out there who is not a gang member or a thug wannabe? Maybe if they didn't exclusively rap about guns, hos, drugs and cop killin'? I know, then the white boys would not buy their goofy recordings.

But Aaron's family will not receive 27 million dollars because a cop didn't do shoot him. On the bright side the up and coming 'up and coming rapper' first recording will go platinum. Not really but the sales of his CD selling from the trunks of cars might sell out. His grandmother did say he was a good boy and could have been successful but doesn't understand why he was shot. Too many guns in the city of 'gun free zones' Aaron must have parked in the wrong spot of another rapper in a luxury vehicle. Maybe Pop Smoke supporters didn't like Supa Gates sound with his deep voice reminiscent of Obama. It's a dangerous profession when you rap about guns, hoes, gold bling with a bit of cop killing on the side. Mr. Williams will be missed, not really, the star of Flatbush will be quickly forgotten.

An unhinged man randomly slugged an Asian woman in the face, knocking her to the ground, in a brazen attack outside a Chinatown restaurant on Monday, police said. Surveillance video posted on Twitter by Assemblywoman Yuh-Line Niou, whose district covers Chinatown, captured the horrifying daytime assault on Bayard Street, near Mott Street. The 55-year-old victim can be seen walking by the Kong Sihk Tong café at around 6:15 p.m.—when a man in an orange hoodie and denim jacket whacks her unprovoked. The woman falls backward onto the pavement, and the attacker begins ranting as two people dining outside sit in stunned silence,

A former U.S. national security adviser said over the weekend that a military coup to overthrow the U.S. government “should happen.” Michael Flynn said at a convention in Dallas that America’s armed forces should follow the lead of those of Myanmar, who seized power after a disputed election. He was asked during a question-and-answer session at a QAnon conference by a man who said he was a Marine “I want to know why what happened in Myanmar can’t happen here?” The QAnon crowd, some of whom have praised the Myanmar coup, cheered and Mr. Flynn, who was former President Trump’s first national security adviser

Manhattan’s Billionaires’ Row will soon feature a men’s homeless shelter smack-bang in the middle of it despite a three-year offensive to halt its creation by members of the city’s elite, the New York Court of Appeals has ruled. Residents of the city’s priciest street fought tooth and nail to halt Mayor de Blasio’s $60.8 million plan to open a 150-bed men’s shelter in the closed Park Savoy Hotel at 158 W. 58th St., arguing the location would be a dangerous “firetrap” and that crime would inevitably ensue on the ritzy block.

Tallahassee, Fla.—The Biden administration is urging a federal court to dismiss a lawsuit that could stand in the way of states like Florida in allowing prescription drugs to be imported from Canada. In a legal brief filed Friday, the White House argues that the lawsuit filed on behalf of U.S. pharmaceutical companies was premature because the federal government has yet to approve any importation programs. The administration’s legal filing came on the same day Florida’s Republican governor, who is considering a run for the White House in 2024, called on the Biden administration to approve its drug importation application.

Houston–She wondered what the children knew. Kimberly Hewitt noticed them playing outside Cuney Homes when she arrived on the anniversary of George Floyd's killing and feared the deaths of Black people were starting to seem too normal. She did not want young people here to think an early death was their fate, too. Hewitt and several dozen well-wishers prayed. They recited Floyd's name and released a panoply of red and gold balloons into the sky. Yet the mourning was hardly over. Floyd was only one in a cascade of neighborhood men to die lately, and they had another funeral to attend.

Florida is threatening to slap cruise lines with tens of thousands of dollars in fines for requiring passengers to show proof of COVID-19 vaccination—uncomfortably wedging the sector between a federal mandate and the state’s sensibility. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a law earlier this month that banned bars, schools, restaurants and other businesses from asking customers whether they’ve been vaccinated against COVID-19. The law goes so far as to impose a fine of $5,000 per customer that is required to show proof of vaccination, and the governor hasn’t yet shown any signs of making a carveout for the cruise industry.

A Navy warship and the Pentagon’s Missile Defense Agency on Saturday failed twice in a key test to shoot down a medium-range ballistic missile, raising questions about America’s readiness to intercept potential enemy attacks. The Defense Department did not reveal a specific location, but it’s believed the test took place somewhere off the coast of Hawaii. The announcement of the test’s failure comes just one day after the Biden administration requested a fiscal 2022 budget of $8.9 billion for the Missile Defense Agency (MDA), down from its 2021 figure of $9.1 billion.(Snip) Perhaps adding insult to injury, a Russian naval surveillance ship

President Joe Biden said enough.(Snip) In March 2020, federal background checks, a rough proxy for purchases, topped 1 million in a week for the first time since the government began tracking them in 1998.

Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) would likely be among the first to admit that he's not the most popular name in Republican circles these days, but that doesn't mean his successful bid for the GOP presidential nomination in 2012 can't serve as a template for future contenders. The Republican Party's 2024 picture is muddled. The consensus seems to be that until former President Donald Trump makes it clear whether he'll run, potential candidates will lay low. One way they can do that and still make some headway if they do ultimately enter the scrum is to get involved with 2022 House

The 78-year-old President of the United States, Joe Biden, is not well. He is suffering from an obvious mental decline. Americans are not sure of his exact condition because he has not released any mental competency test results. When he was asked about it during the presidential campaign, he responded in anger and accused the news reporter who posed the question of being a “junkie.” Clearly, Biden does not exhibit the same mental acuity that he did as a United States Senator. Comparing videos of Senator Biden versus President Biden shows he is a shadow of his former self.
